8351933: Inaccurate masking of TC subfield decrement in ForkJoinPool

[dchuyko]

This a backport of JDK-8351933 [0] (PR [1]) for 11u. At one of code paths the TC subfield of ctl field is decremented and the result is not masked correctly. The target code is in runWorker() instead of tryTrim()/awaitWork() and the surrounding code is different from the current master, as well as the original mask name. The core change is the same, candidate for CTL.compareAndSet is constructed using '(RC_MASK & c) | (TC_MASK & (c - TC_UNIT))' instead of '(UC_MASK & (c - TC_UNIT))' to correctly preserve the RC subfield.

/approval request This a tiny bugfix in ForkJoinPool. At one of code paths the TC subfield of ctl field is decremented and the result is not masked correctly, so the RC subfield is not preserved. That sometimes leads to a stopped pool in 17 and 11 [0].

Testing: full jtreg tier1-3 and JCK for multiple supported platforms in the internal Liberica CI.
